Please…Help Ice Man Recover from Aspiration Pneumonia

Donation protected
It is with a heavy heart that I am putting this out there... I need some help! My fluffy frenchie stud, Ice Man is in the hospital and is recovering from a horrible episode of aspiration pneumonia. On Monday while I was working he was out playing with the pack and he got so worked up over Franki being in heat that he started to have trouble breathing. He was unable to catch his breath for quite awhile. He started to vomit up foamy white slime. This went on for about 20 minutes. Then all of a sudden he was turning blue and not able to breathe at all. While in route to the ER vet, I lost him. He turned from blue to black, stopped breathing completely and went limp. When he lost his bowels I knew he was going if not already gone. I put his whole mouth and nose into my mouth and started to breathe into him. He started to breathe again.. barely. We arrived at the Vet office and they were ready for him and rushed him into the back. He was intubated and put on a lot of medication to get him to settle down and breathe. After what seemed like a lifetime, they got him stable. They told me to come say goodbye to my sweet baby and wish for the best. At this point he was at a 50/50 chance that he would make it through the next few hours. Leaving him was the hardest thing I have ever done. The Dr called every hour or so to update his condition. Tuesday morning, we got the call that he was doing better. He was up and walking around and it was nothing short of a miracle. Even the Dr. doesn't understand how he went from the night before to walking around. He has been improving daily. He still has a lot of fluid in his little lungs but they are pumping him full of IV Antibiotics to hopefully get ahead of any infection pending. I am not one to ask for help... but I need it. This was not expected and the move from CO to KY has killed all emergency funds that I had. I am thankful that my baby is going to be ok and will hopefully get to come home by the weekend.. providing there is no infection. I have never been so scared or cried so much. Please, if you are able to help know that I am forever grateful... this is hard to ask.. but I need him home! Thank you for taking the time to read my story... and thank you from the bottom of my heart for any contribution to help me pay for this long hospital stay for my baby.
